S. is the ideal one. Being made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, it does not disagreeably affect the system in any way as do most of the so-called tonics on the market, which contain Potash or some other harmful mineral ingredient to derange the stomach and digestion, unfavorably affect the bowels, or otherwise damage the health. S. S- S. tones up the stomach and digestion and assists in the assimilation of food; it rids the system of that always-tired, worn-out feeling, and imparts vigor and tone to every part of the body. It re­ establishes the healthy circulation of the blood, stimulates the sluggish organs, and calms the unstrung nerves which make one feel that he is on the verge of prostration. S. S. S. gives an appetite and relish for food that nothing else does, and by its use we can find our­ selves with as hearty, hungry an appetite in Spring as at any other season. It acts more promptly and gives better and more lasting results than any other remedy, and is absolutely safe because of its vegetable purity. Dyspeptic, irritable, nervous, debili­ tated people will find S. S. S. is just the medicine that is needed for the purification of the blood, which, from its diseased or impure condition, is causing their trouble, as well as for toning up and helping the entire system. When you take your tonic this Spring do not experiment, but get the best— the tonic with forty years of success behind it, and the one endorsed by the best people all over the country— S . S. S T H E GREATEST OF ALL TONIOS. It is necessary at this time, when the system is depleted and weakened at every point, that the right remedy be used— one that is especially adapted to the condition, and S. S. S. has proved itself to be this remedy for many years. I f it is taken at the first sign of Spring the system w ill be so built up and strengthened that the disagreeable affections of the season will not be felt as warmer weather comes on.
